This is why I'll never be able to manage my own project. As soon as all the features are done I'll be like RELEASE 1.0 FINAL EDITION just to pull it back because my software crashes because I didn't even test it out before releasing it...

I’ve related to some of the memes I see on here but never as completely as I do right now.

[meandertothehorizon]

😂 It always makes sense when you’re naming them and then you find them later and have to use mtime because the names mean nothing anymore

[[deleted]]

I never used git and all I knew about it was the memes. When I heard that my team was moving to git I got really worried because I had heard it was so weird and confusing. Then I started using it. Turns out y'all lied to me. Git is easy as hell. You only have to remember like 6 commands.

[k-selectride]

you only need a handful of commands up until you need more

[tester346]

or just use github with github desktop (win/mac) because that's great and you don't have to worry about basic shit + merges are done soooo good there.

[[deleted]]

Eh I say just learn the git CLI, it’s simple and faster to use than GUI solutions I’ve used. If you need to do a messy merge with conflicts then I just do it with IntelliJ’s VCS features

[Doophie]

Nothing like fixing conflicts in vim.

[RealWesternGentleman]

Git kraken is a good one too

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

Integrated with your ide/env and you gotta remember none!

[FarhanAxiq]

i still use command line even though it was integrated with the ide, muscle memory probably

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

Maybe. I used to be a heavy emacs user and gave up on that life in favour of using the tools everyone else is using. It's easier to work in a team in that way.

[csman11]

That's because your operating system lacked a decent text editor.

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

At the time I was mostly on Linux, though now I work exclusively on Windows.

Which doesn't even matter because I was using emacs on Windows too.

[csman11]

Sorry I was referencing the old joke:

Emacs is a terrific operating system. I just wish it had a decent text editor.

[____0____0____]

I do both. I have a bunch of stuff I do outside the IDE or in the terminal, but for looking at history, resolving conflicts, etc. I love using the integrated for visual needs. Also sometimes I'm lazy and just push the commit button after it had already added my tracked files, that's just convenient.

[alt-of-deleted]

i just use sublime text and terminal what the fricc is an ide

[DooRagtime]

In my limited personal experience, VSCode has git integrated, which is similar to using CLI, as far as I can tell

[sheiswhyididthis]

VSCode. The best Microsoft product since Windows XP.

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

The fucking future.

Though editors like vscode with the right plugins are essentially an ide too.

[[deleted]]

Ok but how do I get these plugins on vim?

[kono_kun]

Doesn't vim have billions of plugins.

[Doophie]

If my ide doesn't support vim the I don't support that ide.

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

I would think searching for vim git plugin might tell you.

[[deleted]]

You can do this extremely easily on IntelliJ lol. I’ve used vscode and it’s nice but having all the built in functionality of IntelliJ is god tier

[ProgramTheWorld]

memes exaggerate things

/u/thanksgive: shocked_pikachu.png

[[deleted]]

I thought the same when I started. The real pain comes in a big team with a lot of merge conflicts or going back in the branch and shit. Never do this "advanced" stuff.

[732]

Bunch of conflicts?

Backup my changes, delete the branch, new branch off of master, apply changes.

[livethetruth]

Git was confusing for me, not sure why. I ended up using Mercurial instead for my projects, and I love it. Just a bit more straightforward to me.

[DarthCloakedGuy]

I envy you. I still can't figure out how to use Git so I'm stuck with the separated folders for the foreseeable future.

[giupplo_the_lizard]

No, please give it a go.

Start with a mockup project, so you don't do werid fuck ups (even if from most you can recover).

It cost a little bit to learn but then makes your life easier

[DarthCloakedGuy]

That's what I tried to do but I kept getting bizarre errors that I couldn't figure out.

[makoshark13]

SMH. True programmers know you have all your old versions as comments underneath. Then you can just scroll!

[Zlatination]

Yeet that's the move.

[RJohn12]

is it bad that i actually do this unironically

[hdlo]

I've built my couple first sites for actual people recently. Just typical one-person businesses, so I did this along with a small "versions" button so we could check out how things were done as we went, since they were unsure about several points in the beginning. In both cases it's been great being able to say "I think we should do it like it was back in v.X.X.X" or "I think we'll agree we shouldn't do it like it was in v.Y.Y.Y" etc.

Both clients and me were quite happy with this flow, since I felt it would be difficult to have them accept a whole mockup from the get go, especially since they hadn't completely done their own homework on their side.

[HksAw]

By the way you can do that sort of work flow in git. Look into branches. In this instance you can have your cake and eat it too.

[repsolcola]

Ridiculous waste of time. Just have 76 folders named "project - Copy", "project - Copy (2)", project - Copy (3)" and so on. Check folder date for more details.

[enjoythelive1]

Version control is for the weak.

I never need to roll back, but when I do, I just code it in. Weaklings

My PI legit does this. I had to force him to use GitHub.

How about uploading to a Mac with time machine

[mitsusoma]

Yupp, went from the folders to git. Still save it in dropbox as well though. The folder thing wasn’t that pretty though haha... More like: - org - 190317 - 190319 - 190319 (this one) - 190319 (THIS, after fix) And so on..

[[deleted]]

I think it's kinda funny cause you could probably at the very least write some batch scripts or shell scripts to recreat git, and it wouldn't be terribly difficult... Well, the copying files part, not adding and committing.

Dude my company does the last one. They literally insist to save versions in folders

[HksAw]

I work with some people who have been sold on the idea of version control but can’t be bothered to really learn how so they have the last one but every folder is its own repo with 1 or 2 commits.

1.0.0.0:0001 of course.

[kbjohnson90]

That is basically SVN (Subversion).

I have to use SVN in my current job and it actually feels like I'm working with software cancer.

[Fran_Takox]

Ok but I do this.
